Thank you toolate.That one is my fav.It broke my heart when I saw the chip in the porcelain above the 1.I guess some one broke it messing with pin you pull out right there trying to set the time.The back is clear,skeleton I guess?It keeps perfect time with the adjustment slam in the middle.Still,I need to have it cleaned.
